YANG Schema Item iDentifier

Overview

RFC 9595, “YANG Schema Item iDentifier”, is a Proposed Standard document published in July 2024 by M. Veillette, A. Pelov, I. Petrov, C. Bormann, M. Richardson. The canonical text is published by the RFC Editor.

Abstract

YANG Schema Item iDentifiers (YANG SIDs) are globally unique 63-bit unsigned integers used to identify YANG items. SIDs provide a more compact method for identifying those YANG items that can be used efficiently, notably in constrained environments (RFC 7228). This document defines the semantics, registration processes, and assignment processes for YANG SIDs for IETF-managed YANG modules. To enable the implementation of these processes, this document also defines a file format used to persist and publish assigned YANG SIDs.

Abstract as published in the RFC, via rfc-editor.org.

What “Proposed Standard” means

An entry-level standards-track specification: stable, peer-reviewed and a solid basis for implementation, though it may still evolve before becoming an Internet Standard.
